2010 Baseball Cards

In 2010, the San Francisco Giants brought home their first MLB title since they were the New York Giants in 1954. Also, hobby favorite, Buster Posey, was named the NL Rookie of the Year.

While 2010 baseball cards revolve around one rookie player, many top prospects are also available. Stephen Strasburg came onto the MLB scene with hype not matched until Bryce Harper. HIs cards are the most popular option for collectors. Buster Posey, Jason Heyward and Stalin Castro also have official rookie cards in 2010. In addition, Bryce Harper, Manny Machado, Matt Harvey, Shelby Miller, Anthony Rizzo, and Wil Myers have prospect cards that are in high demand.

2010 Bowman Draft is the same prospect heavy product we’ve seen in the past, but this year’s set will take full advantage of Topps’ agreement with USA Baseball, featuring Team USA 16 and Under Autographs.

Bowman Platinum is a brand new end of the season “prospecting” product that comes in at a relitively low price point and appears to offer prospectors plenty of intriguing cards. The Six Auto Book cards, the Strasburg/Heyward Dual Relic Auto, and my personal favorite, the inclusion of Miguel Sano add up to what should be a pretty cool prospecting product.

Bowman Sterling is back for another season of high end prospecting. This year’s addition is bolstered by the strongest MLB Rookie Class in years and the addition of USA Baseball to the lineup. The 20-hit per box Sterling is set to hit hobby store shelves in late December.

Elite is second to only Bowman Chrome when it comes to high quality prospecting cards. Last season Elite was one of the season’s best products and there is no reason 2010 can’t deliver more of the same.
